Upper_bound

[coder1]

Hello,
I'm having a problem using std::upper_bound
here is the code:

# include <iostream>
# include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int a[]={1,1,3,4};
int main()
{
	int *p2=upper_bound(a,a+4,1);
	cout<<*p2<<endl;
}

It is returning 3, why is that shouldn't it return 2?

upper_bound returns an iterator

dereferencing the iterator gives you the element the iterator refers to. In this case it is the element at position 2, which is 3.
